SAMUEL IN THE TEMPLE. 



I should hope that every member 
of a Sabbath school knew all about the 
story of little Samuel, whose history is 
in the Bible. Yet 1 fear such is not 
the case ; and therefore propose to call 
attention to it in these few pages. 

He was the first-born, and his mother, 
whose name was Hannah, loved him 
very much. She had prayed for a 
great while, that God would give her 
that little boy ; and when he was born, 
she knew that God had heard her 
prayer, and she was very grateful. As 
the best proof, also, of her gratitude, 



D SAMUEL IN THE TEMPLE. 

she immediately lent him back to the 
Lord, devoting him wholly to the ser- 
vice of her kind Benefactor. As well 
as she loved him, she was willing, while 
he was yet young, — probably not more 
than three years old, — to part with him, 
with the prospect of seeing him once a 
year only, when she went up to worship 
the Lord, and offer the yearly sacrifice. 
Perhaps some of my young friends 
may think that Hannah went up on 
this yearly visit, to worship, as it were, 
her son ; but this was not the case with 
that good woman. It is to be feared 
that many a mother to whom God has 
lent an only son, has been guilty of 
such sin, — has paid a higher homage 
and given a stronger love to her child, 
than to her Maker, — and, instead of 
lending her dear one to the Lord, as 
Hannah did, has held him back from 
the Lord's service, and seemed to con- 



SAMUEL IN THE TEMPLE. 7 

sider him as her own. But God will 
deal with such parents. 

In the time of Samuel, the Jews had 
but one place of worship, and that was 
at the Tabernacle in Shiloh. There 




God had placed his name ; and thither 
he had commanded all the men to go 
up three times every year, to worship 
before the Lord. Once a year, also, 
all their families went up with them, 
and presented their common offering ; 



8 SAMUEL IN THE TEMPLE. 

when the high priest went into the 
Holy of Holies, and, after offering a 
sacrifice for his own sins, offered also a 
sacrifice for the sins of the whole nation. 
Dr. Watts has a very beautiful psalm, 
which refers to this custom : 

" The Lord in Zion placed his name, 
His ark was settled there ; 
To Zion the whole nation came, 
To worship, thrice a year. 

But we have no such lengths to go, 

Nor wander far abroad ; 
Where'er thy saints assemble now, 

There is a house for God." 

You would do well, dear children, to 
commit these lines to memory ; and 
every Sabbath-day, as you enter the 
sanctuary, you should recollect and 
consider that you are entering " the 
house of God." Then, I trust, your 
deportment will be such that all around 
you will see that you realize the pres- 
ence of God, and fear to sin before him. 



SAMUEL IN THE TEMPLE. V 

Hannah had gone to that place many 
times before Samuel was born ; but, 
no doubt, after she had lent her little 
son to the Lord, and placed him under 
the care of Eli, in the temple, she went 
up with more joy, and higher gratitude, 
to worship that good Being who had 
answered her prayer, than ever she did 
before. 

Some might think she acted foolishly, 
perhaps they would say unfeelingly, to 
put away a lovely child so far from her. 
But Hannah loved God, and she was 
determined to bring a rich offering to 
him. So she brought her only son ; 
for she had said, " I will lend him to 
the Lord, as long as he liveth, and he 
shall dwell in the house of the Lord 
for ever." 

Samuel was so very young, I do not 
know that he understood the reasons 
w T hy his mother should leave him in the 



10 SAMUEL IN THE TEMPLE. 

temple with the aged Eli, the high 
priest ; but it seems that he was very 
obedient, and I cannot find that he 
ever asked to go back, or felt unwilling 
to remain where his parents had placed 
him. 

There is something very beautiful in 
obedience to parents ; and I have 
always noticed that an obedient child, 
if he lives to grow up, will almost 
certainly become a good man, and 
receive the blessing of God. There is 
more meaning, I have thought, in the 
fifth commandment, than children gen- 
erally imagine. Think of it, dear 
children. The commandments are 
words which the great God himself 
spoke. These very words he himself 
spake on Mount Sinai, "Honor thy 
father and thy mother^ that thy days 
may be long in the land which the Lord 
thy God giveth thee" This, moreover, 






SAMUEL IN THE TEMPLE. 11 

was addressed to children. And it is 
as if spoken to every child who may 
read this book ; it was spoken to you, 
dear reader ! Do you then obey this 
command ? 

I knew a little girl, once, who would 
sometimes be very disobedient to her 
parents, but at other times would be 
very willing to do as they required. I 
remember, too, that at such times this 
fifth commandment used to trouble her 
very much ; and once she got a pair of 
scissors and cut it out of her primer, 
because she knew she should have to 
repeat her catechism to her mother on 
Sabbath evening, and conscience told 
her that she had, through the week, 
broken that command. But this little 
girl did not realize that what God has 
once spoken will always remain ; and 
that God does not forget what he has 
commanded, though children may re- 
fuse to obey. 



12 SAMUEL IN THE TEMPLE. 

As little Samuel was lent to the 
Lord, he, of course, was under the 
particular care and guidance of his 
almighty Friend ; and even when he 
was sleeping in the still night, and all 
w r as silent and quiet around him, then 
God was near — very near — so that he 
had his eye on that little sleeping boy ! 
My young friends, do you ever think 
how near God is to you, also ? 




When you lie down on your beds at 
night, do you ever think that God will 
watch over you in your sleeping hours ? 
and when you awake in the morning, 
do you realize your obligations to him, 
who has protected you from harm, from 



SAMUEL IN THE TEMPLE. 



13 



sickness, and from death ? Why, if 
God should forget you, for one moment, 
your pulse would cease to beat, your 
heart would be still, and you would 
become a cold and lifeless corpse, to 
be laid away in the lonely, silent grave. 
How careful, then, should you be, 
that you do not forget God — do not 
forget to pray to him morning and 
evening, asking for his protection, 
thanking him for all your mercies, and 
desiring to "lend w yourselves to him, 
that you may be his, and he may be 
your Friend, for ever ! 




God was so near to Samuel that he 



14 SAMUEL IN THE TEMPLE. 

spake to him, and called him by name, 
" Samuel, Samuel. " He even awoke 
him, and talked with him, and told him 
what to tell Eli. How would you feel, 
dear young friends, if God should speak 
to you this night, and call you by name, 
and talk with you ? 

Well, he does speak to you, though 
it may not be with an audible voice. 
He has spoken to you a great many 
times, — he is always speaking to you. 
He speaks to you in the Bible, which, 
you know, is called " the Word of 
God." And now I will tell you just 
what he says, and I should like to have 
you commit his words to memory, and 
repeat them over to yourself many 
times a day. I know that some chil- 
dren do not love to commit the Bible 
to memory ; but it is a great and a 
good thing to have the mind well stored 
with the words of the great God. The 



SAMUEL IN THE TEMPLE. 15 

Scripture, thus stored, up in the mem- 
ory, is a treasure which can never be 
taken from you. I will tell you what 
a benefit it has been to a poor blind 
lady, with whom I am acquainted. 
When this lady was a little girl, she 
was very fond of committing whole 
chapters to memory, and also very 
many hymns. After she grew up, she 
lost her eye-sight, and was entirely 
blind. Her sister, who was older than 
herself, went to take care of her, and, 
after a little while, this sister's eyes 
became affected, and she also became 
blind. So L there they lived together, 
both in darkness ; and it was often the 
case that they could not go out on the 
Sabbath. At such seasons, the lady 
w 7 hom I first mentioned would pass 
many hours in repeating over to her 
sister the chapters and hymns she had 
learned^hen she was a little girl ; then 



16 



SAMUEL IN THE TEMPLE. 



they would sing their hymns, and pray, 
and so, though only two in number, 
they realized the fulfilment of the Sav- 
iour's declaration that he would be with 
them when only two or three of his dis- 
ciples were together, and they would 
have a very good meeting. This lady 
has often said to me, " O, if there is 
one blessing which I value more than 
all others, it is the word of God stored 




up in my memory. How emphatically 
in my case it is a ' light in darkness P " 



SAMUEL IN THE TEMPLE. 17 

But I promised to tell you what God 
has said to you. He says (Prov. 2 : 
1 — 5), " My son, if thou wilt receive 
my words, and hide my commandments 
with thee, so that thou incline thine 
ear unto wisdom, and apply thine heart 
to understanding ; yea, if thou criest 
after knowledge, and liftest up thy 
voice for understanding ; if thou seek- 
est her as silver, and searchest for her 
as for hid treasures, — then shalt thou 
understand the fear of the Lord, and 
find the knowledge of God." 

And again (Prov. 30 : 17) :— " The 
eye that mocketh at his father, and 
despiseth to obey his mother, the ravens 
of the valley shall pick it out, and the 
young eagles shall eat it." 

(Eccl. 12: 1.) "Remember now 
thy Creator in the days of thy youth, 
while the evil days come not, nor the 
2* 



18 SAMUEL IN THE TEMPLE. 

years draw nigh when thou shalt say, 
I have no pleasure in them." 

(Eph. 6: 1—3.) " Children, obey 
your parents in the Lord, for this is 
right. Honor thy father and mother 
(which is the first commandment with 
promise), that it may be well with 
thee, and thou mayest live long on the 
earth." 

(Col. 3 : 20.) " Children, obey 
your parents in all things, for this is 
well pleasing unto the Lord." 

These, dear children, are some of the 
words which God has spoken to you; 
and if you will be obedient, and listen 
as Samuel did, and as God tells you 
you should, it will be well with you — 
you will be happy in life, and you will 
die happy, and go to dwell with the 
blessed Saviour for ever. 

There was something very striking 
in the prompt obedience of Samuel, to 



SAMUEL IN THE TEMPLE. 19 

do at once what God commanded him. 
It was a very painful duty which he 
was called to perform. Eli had been 
very kind to Samuel, and, no doubt, 
Samuel loved him very much ; and 
when he was told to go and tell Eli 
that God was angry with his two sons, 
because they were so wicked, and that 
he meant to destroy them, it must have 
been a very painful and very unwel- 
come duty to him ; but we do not read 
that he refused or delayed to do it, 
though it is said "that he feared to tell 
him ; 5 ' that is, he feared it would greatly 
affect Eli ; but he told him every whit, 
and kept back nothing. 

I want to say a word about these 
sons of Eli, for you know that they 
were the children of a good man. 
They had been brought up in the 
service of the temple, and had had the 
same privileges Samuel enjoyed; but 



20 SAMUEL IN THE TEMPLE. 

they did not love and fear God. 
Therefore they proved disobedient to 
their father, and, without doubt, mocked 
or slighted his words. Then it was, 
also, that God was angry with them, 
and left them ; so that soon after they 
were slain in battle. And, as their 
dead bodies might be left unburied, 
very likely the ravens and eagles — for 
they often flock around a dead carcass 
— did in fact feed on them, and pick 
out their eyes; and so the words of 
God were verified in their awful end. 

Now, dear children, in the words 
which are addressed to you from the 
Bible, you are commanded to be as 
prompt and as ready to perform every 
lawful and proper command of your 
parents or teachers and guardians, as 
Samuel was the commands of Eli. 
And remember God's messages to you 
are not painful — not hard to perform ; 



SAMUEL IN THE TEMPLE. 21 

and if you will only obey them, you 
will both glorify and honor him, and be 
happy yourself, which you can be in no 
other wav. 

And suppose, when Samuel had 
heard what God had said to him, he 
should, when he got up in the morning, 
have forgotten all about it, or have said 
that he could not attend to it then, or 
have resolved that he would have 
nothing to do with it ; would he have 
honored God? or would God have 
loved him, or blessed him, or have been 
his Friend ? Dear children, think of 
this, and then go and pray that you, 
too, may have a heart willing to obey 
God, and such a heart, if you sincerely 
repent and believe in Christ, will be 
yours, and the God of Samuel will be 
your God also. 

Perhaps some of you may think that, 
as you have not been lent to the Lord, 



22 



SAMUEL IN THE TEMPLE 



as Samuel was, you are not required to 
devote yourselves to him while you are 
young. But let me ask you, " Have 
you not been baptized ? " No doubt 
many of you have been; and you are 
ready to answer at once, " We have 
been baptized. " Perhaps some of you 
can remember the very day when your 
parents carried you to the sanctuary, 




and there, before the whole congrega- 
tion, ^dedicated you in humble faith to 



SAMUEL IN THE TEMPLE. 23 

God, and you were baptized, in the 
name of the Father, the Son, and the 
Holy Ghost. O, that was a solemn 
moment! Then your parents lent you 
to the Lord ; then you were dedicated 
to his service ; so that from that hour 
it has been specially your duty to love 
and obev him. 

How then, has it been with you? 
Have you never been wicked since ? 
Have you never told a lie ? Have you 
never disobeyed your parents? Have 
you never forgotten the Sabbath-day? 
Have you never neglected prayer? 
Have you never been inattentive at the 
Sabbath school? Have you never 
spoken w 7 icked words, or taken the 
name of God in vain ? Have you 
never been angry and quarrelsome ? 
Have you never forgotten that the eye 
of God is ever upon you? What 
answer does conscience give to these 
questions ? 



24 SAMUEL IN THE TEMPLE 




I was once present, when a little 
boy was expelled from the Sabbath 
school. His parents had lent him to 
the Lord ; but, as he grew to be a lad, 
he became very wicked, and would 
often speak wicked words, and tell 
falsehoods. He was also very disobe- 
dient to his parents ; and when the 
Sabbath came, instead of going to 
church, he would go away and play 
during the hours of service, and then 



SAMUEL IN THE TEMPLE. 25 

come home and make his kind mother, 
who was sick, think that he had at- 
tended meeting. I thought that I 
would keep an eye on that boy; for I 
feared that, as he had chosen to forget 
God, so God would forsake him. And 
how do you think the case has proved ? 
Now that very boy is in jail for stealing, 
and it is thought that he will have to 
be sent to the state prison, to stay 
several years. 

Now only think of the difference 
between that boy and Samuel. Sam- 
uel was lent to the Lord by a praying 
mother, and so was the little boy I 
have mentioned. But, as you read the 
life of Samuel, you will find that he 
always feared and obeyed God, and 
when he grew up to be a man, every 
body who saw him knew that he was 
a good man, and honored him ; and 
when he died, no doubt, he went im- 
3 



26 SAMUEL IN THE TEMPLE. 

mediately to heaven ; and there he stili 
lives, rejoicing in the presence of God. 
So if you ever go to heaven, you will 
see him, and converse with him, and 
perhaps hear him tell how much he 
loved God when he was a little boy, in 
the temple ; and you may hear him 
tune his golden harp, and sing praises 
to that almighty Friend to whom he 
was so early dedicated. And there, 
too, will be Hannah, rejoicing that she 
was privileged to present so rich an 
offering as her first-born son to the 
service of the Most High God. 

But will that other little boy be 
there ? O, I do not know. He may 
repent ; he may be sorry for his sins, 
and find pardon of God ; but I hardly 
ever heard of a boy or girl who began 
early to be disobedient to their kind 
parents, to speak wicked words, to lie, 
and steal, and to trifle with all God's 



SAMUEL IN THE TEMPLE. 27 

commands, who ever did much better 
as they grew up. " I have almost always 
found that, when such a course of 
conduct has brought them to a jail, or 
to the state prison, they have, if they 
have been set at liberty, gone on, 
adding sin to sin, until God, in his 
justice, has cut them down. Then 
they die, and, if they are not penitent, 
you know r they cannot go to heaven. 

Now, dear young reader, which 
course will you pursue ? Have you 
been lent to the Lord ? Then be 
determined that you will love him, and 
serve him ; that you will take the word 
of God for your guide, and as you read 
it, if you do not always understand 
what it means, go and ask your heav- 
enly Father to teach you. He listens 
to the prayers of little children. He is 
always near you, and, if you truly seek 
it, he will help you to understand his 
will, and to perform all your duty. 



28 SAMUEL IN THE TEMPLE 






No child that has the privileges 
which Sabbath school children now 




enjoy, can make any reasonable excuse 
for not becoming a Christian, or for 
not storing his mind with the word of 
God, and hiding the commandments in 
his heart ; and if he does not improve 
his rich mercies, how will he answer 
for it when he shall stand at the judg- 
ment-seat of Christ ? But if you do 
neglect your Bible and your soul, and 
make light of all your privileges, still 
there are some who w T ill love the Sa- 
viour, and study the Bible ; and it will 
prove a " light to their feet, and a lamp 
to their path ; " it will guide them 



SAMUEL IN THE TEMPLE. 29 

onward and upward — it will conduct 
them to heaven — it will make them 
eternally blessed. 

I once knew a little girl, about nine 
years of age, who loved her Bible very 
much. She lived in a very remote and 
obscure situation, a great way off from 
Sabbath schools, and the place of 
religious meetings. She had, too, but 
little access to such books as children 
belonging toour Sabbath schools usually 
have. She had never heard but two 
sermons preached, in her life, and she 
had no idea at all of a church. 

She had only been taught to read a 
little, by a lady who had kept a school 
in the place w 7 here she lived, for a few 7 
months, and under w r hose instruction 
she had endeavored to improve. 

After this lady went away, poor 
Mary (for that was her name) mourned 
very much that there was no one to 
3* 



30 SAMUEL IN THE TEMPLE 



teach her any more, and especially that 
she had no one to instruct her from the 
Bible, to answer the many questions 
she wished to ask, and to furnish her 
with a hymn book, from which she 
might learn hymns to sing — for her 
family were too poor to purchase a 
hymn book, and none had then been 
given to them. Some time afterward, 
another lady went into that place, and 
was employed in teaching the children 
in that vicinity. Mary was among her 
pupils, and soon gave evidence, uncon- 
sciously, of true piety. 




This lady, on seeing Mary's great 
attachment to the Bible, and her pecu- 



SAMUEL IN THE TEMPLE. 31 

liar interest in the book of Acts, re- 
quested her to commit that book to 
memory, promising to reward her for it. 
On being asked what reward she would 
choose, instead of asking for toys, 
money, or clothing, she modestly re- 
quested the loan of her teacher's hymn 
book once a week, that she might store 
her mind with as many hymns as she 
could, before her teacher should leave 
the place, and carry away the precious 
book ! This request, of course, was 
readily granted. And a hymn book 
was promised to her, so soon as she 
should have learned the book of Scrip- 
ture assigned her. 

Mary commenced her task cheerfully. 
And every afternoon she might be seen 
tarrying after school, to repeat w 7 hat 
she had learned through the day. 

The family to which Mary belonged 
were in such needy circumstances that 
even for wood they were accustomed 



32 SAMUEL IN THE TEMPLE. 

to depend principally on what they 
could gather from time to time, and 
bring home by hand. This will ex- 
plain Mary's allusion in what I am 
about to state. 

On being asked how she found time 
to study so much Scripture, besides her 
usual school studies, when the days 
began to grow very short, she replied 
that before going into the woods in the 
morning to gather chips, she usually 
read attentively a few verses, and while 
filling her basket repeated, them over 
and over ; and so, by the time she was 
ready to go home, she had her verses 
all perfect. After going to bed at night, 
also, she would request her mother to 
read a few more verses to her by lire- 
light (for candles or lamps were a con- 
venience their poverty did not allow 
them often to enjoy), that she might 
repeat them over to herself until she 
fell asleep. 



SAMUEL IN THE TEMPLE 



33 



This course was not the excitement 
of a day, or week, then to be dropped, 
as is often the case with many little 
girls whom I know, but was her con- 
stant habit for weeks and months. 

After eighteen weeks' study in this 
way, she came, one Saturday afternoon, 




to her teacher, requesting that she 
might recite her entire lesson; and 
now, with great propriety, and much 
evident solemnity, she repeated the 
whole twenty-eight chapters of the 
book of Acts. 

But Mary did not rest here. Having 
a brother and sister, both younger than 



34 SAMUEL IN THE TEMPLE. 

herself, she felt very desirous that they 
also might love the Bible, and store 
their youthful minds with its sacred 
truths. Often has her teacher listened, 
and heard her repeating over to them 
her verses, and endeavoring, in her 
simple manner, to explain them ; and 
on being once asked if she ever prayed 
with them, she replied, " O, yes ; when 
mother sends us into the woods to play, 
and Samuel w r ill be still, then I pray." 

As her parents were very poor, and 
had but one room in a little log hut, 
Mary had, in the winter, no place of 
retirement. But she did not give over 
her devotions ; as her teacher learnt, 
" when the room was dark, and the 
fire had gone out, then she lifted up her 
prayer to God." And, no doubt, he 
who sitteth in the heavens heard her 
petitions. Such was this little girl. 

And now, dear children, what will 
you do ? Will you lay aside this little 



SAMUEL IN THE TEMPLE. 35 

book, as relating to a subject in which 
you have no interest ? Will you neglect 
your Bible, and forget the commands 
of God, thinking that there will be time 
enough yet ? or will you go immediate- 
ly, and tell your Heavenly Father that 
you will give him your heart, and love 
and serve him as little Samuel did, in 
the temple, and as little Mary did, in 
her humble log cabin ? I may never 
know, in this world, what you will now 
do, but God will know, Jesus Christ 
will know, the Holy Spirit will know, 
and all the angels in heaven will know; 
and at the judgment-day, all the world 
will be assembled, and then it will be 
seen and known whether you are stand- 
ing at the right hand of the Judge. If 
you are not found there, it will be 
because you would not obey the word 
of God ; and to such as do not obey 
his word, he will say, "Depart ye 
cursed, into everlasting fire.' 5 



36 SAMUEL IN THE TEMPLE 

When little Samuel woke, 
And heard his Maker's voice, 

At every word he spoke 
How much did he rejoice ; 

0, blessed, happy child, to find 

The God of heaven so near and kind. 

If God would speak to me, 
And say he was my friend, 

How happy should I be, 
0, how would I attend! 

The smallest sin I then should fear, 

If God Almighty was so near. 

And does he never speak? 

O yes ; for in his word 
He bids me come and seek 

The God that Samuel heard, 
In almost every page I see 
The God of Samuel calls to me. 

And I beneath his care 
May safely rest my head; 

I know that God is there, 
To guard my humble bed; 

And every sin I well may fear, 

Since God Almighty is so near. 

Like Samuel, let me say, 
Whene'er I read his word, 

Speak, Lord; I would obey 
The voice which Samuel heard; 

And when I in thy house appear, 

Speak, for thy servant waits to hear.
